Levantia: Difference between revisions

Human habitation has had a large impact on Levantia, most obviously through the creation of the [[Grand Vandarch Canal]] to the north and by the [[Carolina Grand Canal]] to the south of the Vandarch, connecting it to the Kilikas and Urce River respectively. Less obviously, human habitation has resulted in both increased soil erosion and decreased erosion in some areas, the manipulation of river flows through centuries of built-up embankments and dams, the formation of artificial lakes, the draining of marshy areas, and the creation of artificial islands in some regions.

The word "police" was borrowed from the Latin word '''politia''', meaning an agent of the state or civil administration. It was first used in the modern sense in the mid 17th century in [[Urcea]], but soon spread throughout Levantia. It was often associated with political and religious policing but was also used in other sundry functions of government administration, depending on the country. The word has modernized to police in the many modern languages through its adoption in the 18th and 19th centuries. However, outside of Levantia, the word, and the concept of police itself, was disliked as a symbol of foreign oppression.
